4 Tips for Visiting the Walls of Dubrovnik

1

Watch the rush-hoursThe walls of Dubrovnik are the most popular tourist destination in the city, so they can be extremely busy! They’re especially popular with visitors from cruise ships which call into the port, and which tend to arrive at the walls around 9 am. Begin your visit between 8 am and 9 am in order to beat the crowds!

2

Use the less crowded gatesPile Gate is the most popular entrance, and therefore also the busiest area of the wall. For slightly fewer crowds, consider starting at Ploce Gate or St. John’s Fortress.

3

Dress for the weatherMake sure to dress appropriately for the weather, as the walls aren’t covered and there’s no shade. In summer, make sure to wear a hat and bring sunglasses and sunscreen. You’ll also need shoes suitable for walking and climbing plenty of stairs.

4

Stay hydratedThere are places along the wall where you can stop for refreshments, including ice cream, but consider bringing plenty of water in summer to avoid dehydration and heat stroke. There are limited bathroom facilities, so bear that in mind before starting your visit.
